The JBX43394 SC/APC to ST/APC simplex fiber patch cable represents professional-grade connectivity for telecommunications, data centers, and enterprise networks. At 2.5 meters in length, this cable provides the ideal span for equipment interconnection while maintaining signal fidelity in critical infrastructure environments. **Technical Excellence** This singlemode fiber patch cable features a 9/125 micrometer core/cladding ratio with G.657.A1 glass fiber, a bend-insensitive design that maintains performance in tight routing scenarios. Tested insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical) and return loss of ≥20dB ensure minimal signal degradation. The cable meets attenuation specifications of 0.25 dB/km at 1310nm and 0.35 dB/km at 1550nm, supporting both traditional and DWDM applications. **Compliance and Safety** TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance makes this cable suitable for government and military procurement. RoHS/ELV directives confirm environmental compliance and reduced hazardous substances. OFNR (Riser Rated) jacketing ensures the cable meets building safety codes for vertical runs between floors, while the 1.8mm outside diameter minimizes conduit space requirements. **Practical Features** The distinctive yellow jacket provides superior visibility during installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance—a critical advantage in dense cable environments. The straight-through polarity configuration ensures straightforward connectivity without signal inversion. The cable is available in custom lengths for specialized applications beyond the standard 2.5m offering. **Applications** Ideal for fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) installations, telecommunications equipment interconnection, data center patch panels, and broadcast facilities. The SC/APC to ST/APC connector combination accommodates mixed-vendor environments where equipment uses different connector types. **Warranty and Support** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty, this cable ships from multiple US locations ensuring fast delivery. Free standard shipping on orders over $99 reduces acquisition costs for network installations. Whether upgrading legacy networks or deploying new fiber infrastructure, this cable delivers proven reliability and performance.
